Learning to use tiddlers tagged $:/tags/ViewTemplate is the next step in
your self education. They are displayed when viewing a tiddler and can
overlay the current tiddler with code that applies to the currentTiddler,
can access currentTiddler text and fields.
You can then have your customisable parameter stored in a tiddler field or
elsewhere and refer to that instead. Be aware you need other tricks to edit
something in the currentTiddler in the view template, tricks the edit
tiddler process achieves for us.
